The GLOBE Program

GLOBE

The GLOBE Program® is a world-wide, hands-on, program that gives primary- and secondary-school students the opportunity to learn science by doing science. Students participating in GLOBE take scientifically valid environmental measurements and report them to a publicly available database. Because data from GLOBE schools are used by GLOBE scientists and are reported to the world science community, protocols and instruments are required to meet rigorous specifications to ensure the highest quality standards for data collection.

Vernier is proud to be a supplier of data collection equipment that meets GLOBE Program specifications.
